Sustainable practices in agriculture are imperative. These practices must also be integrated into pest control. Implementing sustainable pest control in poly houses is a challenge as well as an opportunity for many farmers. Blustal, one of the most trusted poly house suppliers in India, has pioneered pest control accessories specifically for sustainable farming.

The Challenge of Pest Control in Polyhouses

An enclosed area called polyhouses allows for substantial increases in the yield and quality of crops, while also granting freedom from seasonal dependence. Despite these benefits, if proper care is not taken, there is a possibility of a pest build-up in the surrounding area. Inappropriate use of pesticides not only adversely affects the crops, but can also be very harmful to the environment and consumers. That is why solutions for sustainable pest control are extremely useful.

Why Select Sustainable Pest Control Accessories?

Sustainable pest control means taking a holistic approach, one which doesn’t throw the ecological balance into turmoil by treating it as something separate that needs to be conquered– instead, it encapsulates the use of physical barriers, biological means, and eco-friendly traps that reduce populations of pests while keeping beneficial insects in the ecosystem and soil and water uncontaminated. To this end, Blustal offers polyhouse accessories that align with sustainable practices, and contributes to supporting such eco-conscious solutions.

Top Pest Control Accessories for Polyhouses

These are some of the most useful eco-friendly pest control accessories from Blustal:

Insect-Proof Netting

Blustal provides top grade netting which is UV stabilized so that it is not damaged by the harsh rays of the sun. It also provides Insect-Proof Netting which overtime has proved to be effective. These fine mesh nets are placed on the side walls and openings for the polyhouse, croping net and are fitting for insect entry. They function as a physical barrier devoid of chemicals and offer chemical free options.

Sticky Traps

Sticky traps are utilized for the population of pests for easier measuring and Control. These traps are made of colored sheets which have an adhesive on top which is safe. The color of these traps aids in drawing in pests who would ultimately be stuck. They will also work for females and aphids; however, blue traps are more suitable for thrips.

Pheromone Traps

These traps use synthetic pheromones to attract male insects and disrupt their breeding cycle. Their specificity and absence of impact on non-target species makes them an ideal solution for integrated pest management (IPM).

Biological Control Units

Blustal supports the application of biological pest control agents such as ladybird beetles, lacewings, and predatory mites. These insects inhabit the polyhouse and are beneficial because they prey on the troublesome pests while also helping in the maintenance of ecological balance.

Fogging Machines with Organic Solutions

For some pest outbreaks, Blustal suggests the use of fogging machines that spray organic pesticides. These solutions are plant derived, biodegradable, and non-toxic to crops and farmers.
